We aren't sure it gets any more rock & roll than little snakeskin boots. Very David Bowie in deep navy blue. The shape is slim through the ankle for a sophisticated, not-so-costumey feel... more Chelsea cowgirl than rodeo queen. Ann wears the suede version a couple times a week, if that gives you any sense of the utility. This pair is bench-made in Spain — talk about a cultural mashup — with Goodyear construction, a stacked heel, and a pointed, slightly squared-off toe.
